How to make your own Internet page

It’s easy to make your own Internet page. The easiest way is to use a special programme called a “web editor”. You can find these programmes on the Internet.

First think about some things to put on your Internet page by looking at other people’s pages. You need to put your Internet page on a bigger computer called a “host” which stores the pages so that other people can see them. These computers are owned by special Internet companies. Your programme may be able to help you find a host computer which you can use for free, but some companies will charge money for this.

To make your Internet page, start up the programme and write some text in the window, then use the signs you can see on the computer to put in pictures and make the text larger or smaller, and change the way your page looks.

You can also put photos on your Internet page. First, you need to put the photo in your computer, then use your mouse to move the photo to the place you want it. Choose the correct sign for putting photos onto the page, then find the name of your photo in your computer. When you’ve found it, choose that one with your mouse and put your photo on your Internet page.

You can also put signs on your Internet page to join it to other people’s pages. Visitors to your page can follow these signs to find out more about a subject. For example, if your page includes some information about Madonna, you could put on a sign that takes you to the page for her fan club.

When you have completed your Internet page, you can put it on the Internet. After you put your page on the Internet, anyone will be able to see it.

76. What is the first thing to do to make an Internet page?

A. Buy it from a big company.              B. Get a programme from the Internet.

C. Use another person’s page.               D. Make a programme for it.

77. What does the writer say about making an Internet page?

A. It is not difficult.                 B. It is very difficult.

C. It is always expensive.             D. It is always free.

78. Why do people put signs for other Internet pages on their page?

A. To get money from the other people.

B. To get money from Internet companies.

C. To give more information about something.

D. Go give people ideas about Internet pages.

79. What things can you put on your Internet page?

A. Text only.   B. Photos only.   C. Text and photos only.  D. Text, signs and photos.

80. What do you do when you put your page on the Internet?

A. You start up a special programme.

B. You join it to other people’s pages.

Maybe you know floods, droughts, earthquakes, sandstorms and so on. But have ever heard of typhoons?

Typhoons are some of the worst storms, usually around the Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea. Most happen in July, August and September.

How does a typhoon happen? When lots of sea water gets hot in the summer sun, it evaporates into the air. This makes the air hotter. When the air gets warm enough, it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in. It fills the space that is left. After the air gets warmer, it starts to move quickly, making wind. The wind goes in circles, and it keeps moving higher in the sky. The warmer the air gets, the quicker the wind moves. And when the wind moves faster than 30 meters a second, a typhoon begins.

A typhoon has two parts, One is called the “eye”. In the eye, the wind does not move so fast. The other part is the wall of clouds around the eye. This is where the strongest with and hardest rains are.

Typhoons are very dangerous. In 2004, Typhoon Yunna killed 164 people in Zhejiang, and 24 people were missing. In May 2006, Typhoon Pearl hit Guangdong and Fujian, and thousands of houses were damaged.

What to do when a typhoon hits:

●Stay inside, Close all the windows and stay away from them.

●Try to bring all of your things inside. Strong winds could even blow away your bikes!

●Listen to the radio or TV for important information.

●If you’re told to go to a safer place, do so right away.

91. Typhoons often happen       .

A. in the hot season                              B. in the cold season

C. only in China                                         D. under the sea

92. Which picture can tell meaning of the underlined sentences“…,it starts to move higher up into the sky. Then, cooler air around it rushes in.”?

93. When a typhoon comes, we cannot       .

A. close all the windows                         B. listen to typhoon news

C. stay outside with our bikes                D. stay inside the strong house

94. This passage is mainly about       .

A. the knowledge of typhoon                B. the eye of a typhoon

C. the names of typhoon                       D. the most dangerous typhoon Yunna

95. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. The warmer the air gets, the slower the wind moves.

B. This year Typhoon Peal killed 164 people in Zhejiang.

C. The strongest winds and harder rains are in the eye of typhoon.
